I got this car for a good price. I asked to buy a loaner car… and I wanted a diesel. Luckily I got this one with like 4800 miles on it. I spend a lot of time moving around, so I am spending more on this than my living arrangement. It was’t a big deal a while back, but payments are a little rough now. It will be fine in time. I love the gas mileage. I made it to LA on about $60 in diesel. I drive about 6 weeks locally before thinking about a fuel up. I hope I never have to get rid of this.

Another coal-roller here I have a 1987 Mercedes-Benz 300TD. Not the best cosmetically, but mechanically runs great. I bought it for $350, put about $1500 of parts/fluids in it since it had been sitting for about a year. Not really intended to be my daily, but it is now. I’m trying to pick up another cheap car for a daily so I can really tear apart and fix up the Benz.
